I saw that it was digitized online, but was actually nuts enough to still want a physical copy. I've been trying to slowly learn more about local species, and this is a great reference. I also just like old books like this. The frontispiece with "Woodrow Wilson, Governor of New Jersey" - 1911 was one year before his successful run for President - great stuff.

It's huge. I think only Heart of the Pines is larger on the shelf.

It's the whole thing, the original 1911 printing. The pages match up with your link. The only thing I see that's different is the binding is green with gold letters on the cover in the digitized copy; mine is red with no title on the cover. That must have changed at some point.

It wasn't terribly expensive. I found a botanical books seller offering it online. It has a little bit of water damage at the bottom, but it's barely noticeable.

Oh, I see. I was thinking all that stuff about the museum was before that. But, do you have the map in the frontpiece? Likely not.
